Now it's Ruy Texeira. This is the "the coming democrat majority" guy:

liberalpatriot.com - The climate movement is circling

As the (still well-funded) climate movement fades slowly into irrelevance, Democrats need to realize one important thing: this is great! They’re being let out of climate jail to think freely about their program for the future. The party has been way too identified with the climate movement and hostility to fossil fuels; way too preoccupied with climate change goals in framing their economic policies; way too dismissive of ordinary voters’ concerns about costs and economic growth and way too responsive to the priorities of liberal, educated elites instead of working-class voters. There’s a big, beautiful world out there of economic and energy policies that can now be considered without the climate movement’s thumb on the scales.

Yeah...about that.
liberal politicians aren't going to turn on a dime and start wearing Make Exxon Great Again hats. The climate fanatics that the democrats have cultivated over the years won't stand for it.
